Eonycteris spelaea View in CoL
A widespread cave-dwelling species found from India to the Moluccas. It is rare in our study area, being known from two individuals captured in mist nets by GP and OC in farmland on the periphery of KFR in 2014. We believe these records represent a minor range extension to the species’ known distribution. It has previously been mapped in SE Sulawesi, including the nearby island of Muna ( Francis et al., 2008b), although has not been reported from Buton Island.
